Amplifier for Focal 936

Focal 936 having a “cold midrange” might be the new funniest thing I’ve ever read on here.  If anything, the mids are a little recessed and congested.  Zero sign of them being cold.  
IF you have even heard them, you might have heard them in the worst room placement imaginable

Nope. It was a dedicated and well-treated listening room. Driving amps were Devialet Expert Pro and Parasound Halo.

"Cold" should not be confused with "bright" or "forward," which I consider different traits. I'd say the forwardness of the Focals was fairly neutral. Vocals had about the same depth as accompanying instruments. Actually, their soundstage on the whole was rather 2-dimensional, especially compared to the Maggies. 

With the "cold" remark, I was mostly referring to how they imparted a somewhat clinical character on everything they played. I liken it to lighting. Both fluorescent and incandescent bulbs can be either dim or bright, but the former usually imparts a cold feel compared to the latter. It's easier for most folks to relax with incandescent lighting. The Focal midrange is like the fluorescent bulb of audio. Hope that makes more sense.

Really why do you say that, I was hoping more base and speaker
efficiency would fill my room up more do you think Totems are better

To my ears, Totem is the the more tonally accurate brand, and better regarding imaging and detail, at least compared to the 936.

My experience with the Focal 936 specifically, was that it produced a cold, artificial sounding midrange. All genres were presented with the same coloration. That, and on the whole, I found they were only competitive in the $2K price segment, comparable to the likes of MA Silver 8s, Revel F36s, and B&W CM series etc., not the $4K range where they were easily outclassed in many areas. At the time, I had an opportunity to buy a demo pair of 936s for $2K but ended up choosing the Magnepan 1.7is. The Revel F36s were my runner ups. I’ve since sold the 1.7is and own several sub $4K speakers that I consider superior (I’m one of those who believes there is no such thing as a perfect speaker).

Sure, the Focals will play louder and fill the room more easily, however, you can achieve the same by high-passing your Totems and pairing them with a pair of good subs. This is what I’ve done with my Spendors and the sound is phenomenal. I highly recommend this alternative if you have the space. An additional sub for stereo output was one of my very best investments. The improvements are not limited to the bass freqs. The soundstage width nearly doubled.

If you want more bass, 948 is the way to go (over 936) if your room can support it.  But be warned, either Focal will sound different from the Totem.

I ran a 100 watt Exogal amplifier on a pair of Aria 948 with ease . Great sounding speakers by the way . Hope you enjoy them

Needs 

The 906 at least beeds an amp with some balls. High current not necessarily high watts.

Have you heard these Focals? Other than bass output I have doubts that they'd be an upgrade over your Forests.

Easily.

The mono amps put out 112 watts into 8 Ohms and 175 into 4 ohms
